caps
walk up to the school in the summer and you know that girl who that's always sitting there on the top steps? well watch out for her because she spits. her name is tracey something.
by her feet theres so much red exploded cap paper and around a thousand burn marks on the concrete. she pops caps with rocks for the smell. a girl loving the smell of caps.
she has a scar from her lip to her nose so she doesn't like anyone. i have a cousin with the same thing and he doesn't like anyone either but at least he doesn't spit on you to prove it.
sometimes when no one's around, sh unpeels a roll of caps with her fingernail and throws it down to me. and i pop them all for her while she watches.
everyone of those perfect black bumps for her.
